If You Believe….
Uncle AndrewMargaret and I were watching an interview with astronaut, college professor and all-around good egg Neil Armstrong on 60 Minutes last night (transcript can be found here), when Ed Bradley asked him, “In the midst all your professional achievements, you’ve managed to get married, to have a family. Was it a difficult balance for you to maintain both sides of your life?”
Armstrong pondered this for a second. “The one thing I regret was that my work required an enormous amount of my time, and a lot of travel, and I didn’t get to spend the time I would have liked with my family as they were growing up.”
At this point Margaret piped up, “‘A lot of travel’. Boy, that’s an understatement!”
I did not hit her with a sofa cushion.

((apologeeze)) …. I’ve looked all over this site for a simple way to contact Uncle Andrew without having to respond to a particular comment, but I could not find a link….Bleh… So, I will contextualize this response by telling Margaret to HIT YOU WITH A SOFA CUSHION! There, context enabled.
Now write me back Andy, I’ve finally got my new mac desktop and am on vacation. I’ve got photos to send you.
